FAQ:
Q: How to use a swaging tool?
A: Attach an expander head that matches the diameter of the tube to the end of the tool. Fit the head into the end of the tube and gradually squeeze the handles. Release when the end of the tube is fully swaged.
Q: How do you use a cable swaging tool?
A: – First, put the metal stop at the end of the cable or loop and crimp it into place. – Next, create the loop of the desired length. – Remember that side-by-side applications of cable with a ferrule often require more material than a simple loop at the top. – Be sure to cut the additional cable to accommodate the necessary stop at the end.
Q: What is the difference between swaging and flaring?
A: What is the difference between swaging and flaring? The big difference is that flaring is shallower and a different shape. It creates a funnel at the end of the tube. Swaging on the other hand is deeper and you can expand the diameter further along the tube to create a flute shape.
